Gaming Club Crackdown
Los Angeles brawl results in city investigation
South Korea isn't the only country taking broadband gaming a bit [url=http://www.vnunet.com/News/1136154]too seriously[/url]. Gamers recently gathered in a Los Angeles broadband gaming club for a [url=http://www.counter-strike.net/]Counter-Strike match[/url], but instead found themselves party to [url=http://channels.netscape.com/ns/news/story.jsp?floc=FF-PLS-PLS&id=01021907000253091&dt=20030102190700&w=RTR&coview=]a massive brawl by competing team members[/url].
